Chapter 138: Capturing the Commander Alive

"This is the guard I just recruited. He doesn't have a pass yet. Is the commander in there?" asked the major general.

"He just finished a meeting with some generals, so he should be inside. Major General, I want to go in and pay you a visit. Please hand over your weapon to me," the guard replied.

The major general took off his sword and handed it to the guard, thinking: If this guy doesn't have a weapon, he won't pose a threat to my safety.

Luo Tian hesitated. If he took off his sword, the young general would most likely turn against him immediately. But if he didn't take off his sword and he couldn't see the commander-in-chief, the strategy of capturing the thief and the leader would not be implemented.

As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking the tiger's den. Luo Tian also hid the dagger given by Rubin in his arms. Even if he handed over the sword, it would not affect his plan. He took the sword off his waist and handed it to the guard.

The Major General heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Luo Tian take off his sword, but he did not betray him. After all, if he rashly announced that Luo Tian was an assassin, he would be suspected of collaborating with the enemy by bringing the assassin in. Moreover, if he really just wanted a pardon, it would not be a big deal to satisfy him.

Seeing that the two men had surrendered their weapons, the guards let them in.

Luo Tian followed the major general into the tent and saw a tall and burly middle-aged man standing in front of a battlefield sand table, fiddling with the flags on it and thinking about tactical strategies.

"Why did you come back so soon?" the commander asked, "Didn't we send you to the front line to provide support?"

"Father, I was leading my men to the front line for support, but I discovered that a supervising officer had surrendered to the enemy. So I went forward to investigate, but unexpectedly the supervising officer swung a knife at me. Fortunately, this soldier stepped forward to stop him and killed the supervising officer, so I escaped. But according to military discipline, killing a supervising officer is a capital crime. He begged me to ask for a pardon from you, so I brought him back." The major general recounted the whole story.

The commander walked up to them, glanced at Luo Tian, and suddenly drew his sword and slashed at him. Luo Tian reacted very quickly and quickly stepped back, thus avoiding the attack.

"What does this mean, Commander?" Luo Tian asked, reaching into his arms, touching the dagger, ready to launch an attack at any time.

"Every country has its own laws, and every family has its own rules. Since you killed the supervising officer, you must be executed according to military discipline." The commander said, holding a sword.

"Father, it was the war supervisor who rebelled and wanted to kill me, but he saved me! It is that war supervisor who should die." said the major general.

"The supervising officer is dead and there is no evidence to prove his wrongdoing. How can I listen to your one-sided story as to whether he has defected or not? I will not break military discipline for a small soldier, son. Those who accomplish great things must be ruthless and merciless. How can you do this?" The commander rushed towards Luo Tian with a sword in his hand.

Luo Tian stopped pretending and directly took out a dagger from his arms to defend against the commander's attack.

When the commander saw Luo Tian holding a dagger, he shouted to the major general, "Good boy, you actually brought a weapon with you. You must have been prepared. Stupid son, what are you still doing standing there? Go out and call for help!"

The young general was so frightened that he ran out of the tent, shouting, "There's an assassin, there's an assassin!"

Luo Tian knew that he had to get rid of the commander immediately, otherwise the more people there were, the more passive he would be. He leaped up and pounced on the commander.

The commander swung his sword at Luo Tian, but Luo Tian dodged left and right, and knocked the commander's sword away when he was not prepared, then stabbed the commander's legs with his dagger.

After being stabbed, the commander collapsed to the ground. Luo Tian went around behind him and put the dagger against his neck.

A group of soldiers rushed into the tent. At this time, Luo Tian had already controlled the commander and held him hostage, ordering him: "If you dare to take another step, I will kill him!"

"If you want a pardon, I can issue you one, is that okay?" The commander gave in this time and begged.

"Why didn't you send a message just now? Now that the knife is on your neck, you finally obeyed? Let me tell you, it's useless even if you send a message." Luo Tian said.

"You can tell me what you want. All I ask is that you release the commander!" said a general.

"It's very simple. I only have three conditions. First, stop attacking the Ice Palace immediately. Second, all troops retreat three kilometers. Third, submit a letter of surrender and surrender to Rubin." Luo Tian said.

The commander knew that the assassin was definitely sent by Rubin. His request for a pardon was fake, but his real intention was to force him to withdraw. If he withdrew, he would not be able to explain to Prince Roger, but if he did not withdraw, his life would surely be gone.

Luo Tian waited nervously for the commander's reply. This guy was full of tricks, and he didn't know if he would agree to withdraw his troops and surrender. ?
